Invites and Programs and Sites...Oh My!

UNICEF USA's primary focus in the broader mission of UNICEF is fundraising, so it's important that we make the most of every piece that is used to enhance each event.

Over the years of our partnership with the organization, we've had the chance to explore a range of beautiful print production techniques.

We vary our approach through touches like foil, emboss, deboss, letterpress, wax seals, envelope liners, duplexing to make an impact.

We've also parlayed our designs into the digital sphere by creating HTML versions of our print invites and microsites for easy information access and RSVP capabilities.

Every event has a different look and feel, within the branding of UNICEF USA. When Atlanta secured Ted Turner as their honoree, we created an invite that had a rugged, tactile feel, while still remaining elegant and high class.

For the Atlanta invite, we created a booklet invitation that featured an outer casing, printed on an earthy, substantial stock.

The UNICEF Children's Champion Award Dinner has long legacy of successful fundraising in Boston. Our design for the event was simple and elegant, reflecting the event's commitment to focusing on UNICEF's work across the world.

Audrey Hepburn never forgot the aid she received from UNICEF as an adolescent in post-World War II Holland. The annual Audrey Hepburn Society Ball in Houston reflected her commitment to caring for the world's children. The event also honors humanitarians who continue her legacy. This beautiful invitation, which announced honoree Barbara Bush, featured an outer casing, foil stamps, and even a wax seal.

Each year that we have done the Audrey Hepburn Society Ball invite, we have tried to build off the previous year's look and feel. This year's invitation utilized the square logo lockup and layout from the year prior, updating it to be even more elegant and sophisticated through the use of pearlized paper and gold foil.

The UNICEF Golf Classic is a favorite for golf-enthusiasts who want to play for a good cause. This invitation was inspired by Nike sensibilities, utilizing black, white and cyan to convey the sleek, athletic feel of the event.

Inspired Gift Cards help UNICEF raise key funds for specific needs around the world. Each card has a very particular price point, allowing event attendees to donate to certain needs that they resonate with, and know that the money goes directly to it.

The San Francisco Gala

In this invitation a die-cut enclosure neatly holds a set of panels, presenting the event details in an elegant fashion. The geometric floral motif is a nod to San Francisco’s official flower – the dahlia – abstracted in a modern style. Along with purple and white, gold metallic foil is used throughout as a reference to the iconic Golden Gate Bridge.

With all of our UNICEF special events pieces, we take a holistic approach, considering a myriad of influences to inform the multifaceted designs. This can range from the thematic concepts of the event overall, special guests and honorees, and, most importantly, those impacted by UNICEF’s work across the globe.

For the Chicago gala, the theme of the event was stepping into a Moroccan bazaar. We translated this concept to a visual approach that centered around an intricate, North African textile-inspired pattern. Several pieces featured this pattern, including the invitation, and the pattern was also flexible enough to work as a system, highlighting key imagery, text-content, and decorative elements. With this approach in mind, we were able to create a beautiful piece that felt cohesive across the event, created a high-end aesthetic, and highlighted the vital work UNICEF is doing for those in need.

This three-card set features an elaborate geometric design based on the line art used on the Save the Date. The entire piece is held together with a wide belly band, creating a bold and colorful invitation. The dark blue flood of the main card creates contrast against the bright white of the other sections and helps it stand out as the focal point. For added pizazz, a holographic foil stamp (shown here) on both the front of the main card and belly band creates a show-stopping presentation inspired by the lighting effects of the gala’s award recipient.
